Well there has to be some connection. Black politicians in Africa are completely incompetent. Barky and Holder are also. No one ever sent our country down the crapper at African speed. Not even Carter. But Obama did. Must be some connection.

How about a complicit media and Congress so desperate to have their agenda passed at all costs? But hey, if you are that desperate to prove liberal stereotypes of you, be my guest.

I gotta agree with Cuesi on this one. I don't believe it's genetics but rather a product of environment. However, Speed does have a point that most, if not all, countries that are governed by predominantly black government are despotic shitholes. But I think the 2 tie into one another. So, in short, while Speedy has a point, Cuesi is more correct in that it's environment and a mentality that's to blame and not DNA. Also, I think giving Speedy a timeout is a bit egregious DJ. Everything he says is true even if his premise and where the blame lies is not, what he is saying isn't racist but it's the 800lb gorilla in the room everyone is afraid to talk about.

Well you can take that up with SR then. It was his call.

In most sports, cold-cocking an opposing player repeatedly in the face with a series of gigantic Slovakian uppercuts would get you a multi-game suspension without pay.

In hockey, it means you have to sit in the penalty box for five minutes.

DJones did the announcement of the two week timeout. SR was the one who did it, so don't blame DJ. SR is getting better and ready for that force choke thing (or whatever it is---confess I've never watched a Vader thing in its entirety. I guess the force isn't with me). :D

Blame European and American hand outs to the peoples of Africa for keeping them from pulling themselves up. And the "world court" for screwing over countries as well.

He won't be seeing this for a couple weeks CueSi, you can stand down. ;)

Stereotypes are certainly generated by a sufficient sample being easily observed in the stereotypical behavior. To get to "all predominantly black governed countries are shitholes" from that is a questionable step.

There are , give or take, 193 countries in the world, many of which are monocultural, others are somewhat multicultural.

Any time you break the population of the world down into three major groups, you're already asking a lot of reason. While it's somewhat convenient shorthand, the world doesn't conveniently break out into Caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negroid.

By American standards, most of Africa is a Third World shithole run by corrupt governments of black people, either legitimately in power or as client state puppets. But by American standards, most of Latin America is described much the same way, and while there are a great many black people in Latin America, we don't generally think of Latin America as negroid.

Most of the Middle East is considered to be caucasian, and we don't have a lot of respect for their governments or culture either. We have been known to say that nothing worthwhile has been invented in Africa or the Middle East in the last 1400 years. That's not true, but it's almost true so it will do.

Most of Asia is a Third World shithole, run by corrupt governments by American standards.

But on the bright side, some Americans attribute the greatness of Western Culture to Christianity, which is a religion which depending upon which scholar one consults is either Asian or African in origin.
